Hi Robert,
It works that automatically, at least for us. For example, this markup:
<orderedlist> <listitem> <para>Ordered list item 1.</para> </listitem> <listitem> <para>Beginning of sub-list 2.</para> <orderedlist> <listitem> <para>Ordered list item 2a.</para> </listitem> <listitem> <para>Ordered list item 2b.</para> </listitem> </orderedlist> </listitem> <listitem> <para>Ordered list item 3.</para> </listitem> </orderedlist>
Gives us this result:
1.Ordered list item 1.
2.Beginning of sub-list 2.
a.Ordered list item 2a.
b.Ordered list item 2b.
3.Ordered list item 3.

ok, still from a newbie perspective as i work my way through the docbook book -- is there a recommended markup for a set of exercises at the end of a section, with possible sub parts to each exercise?
1. blah blah
a) part a
b) part b
2. woof woof ...
a) part a
b) more part b
... and so on. i can see the outer list can be an ordered list, but can i apply a collective numeration attribute on the entire outer ordered list, such as Arabic/loweralpha, or must i set the numeration attribute of loweralpha individually on each of the sub lists?
or is there a better way? always looking for good advice, especially if you can supply a pointer to a site with good examples i can pilfer.
